Objective Ultrasound exposures (USE) at different frequency and intensity were investigated on the apoptosis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) at rat carotid artery after balloonplasty. Optimal ultrasound therapeutic parameters were found to prevent restenosis.Methods Thirty-five male Wistar rats(350±50 g) were randomly divided into seven groups: controlled group(only balloon dilation); built animal models after the carotid artery of rats was denudated by 2 Forgarty catheter; USE therapeutic group:ultrasound device made of mono-source of piezoelectric ceramics operating at 705 kHz, 2.17 MHz,5.48 MHz frequencies and 1 W/cm2, 2 W/cm2 intensities after balloon dilation. USE was applied locally to the injured blood vessels in the treatment group for 3 minutes. The target arteries were autopsied two weeks after the procedure. Apoptosis was studied respectively by TUNEL marking method. The ratio of apoptosis was also calculated to observe changes.Results TUNEL%: The ratio of positive cells marked by TUNEL in the USE group was higher than the controlled group after two weeks. The ultrasound group of 705 kHz, 1W/cm2 had statistical significance over the controlled (30.2±3.8% vs 18.6±2.4%, P<0.05), but other groups had no statistical significance (P>0.05).Conclusion USE at certain frequency and intensity resulted in a significant increase in apoptosis of VSMC following carotid artery injury on rats. In this experiment, USE at 705 kHz, 1 W/cm2 had a significant effect on increasing apoptosis of VSMC, it could potentially prevent the restenosis formation of blood vessel after balloonplasty.
